About Pam's experience in the Women's Employment Rights Clinic:
My Clinic experience as a student cemented the direction my career would take. I gained a deep appreciation for employment practice and haven't looked back. The Clinic brought to life the concepts I learned in the classroom and the law became tangible. For me, it was one of those "ah hah!" moments. I finally understood what the practice of law was about and I truly fell in love with employment law. As a graduate law fellow, I tried my first case with the Clinic in my first year of practice. This experience was invaluable. I received very solid support and mentoring. The Clinic indisputably shaped the litigator that I am today.
